Apologies as not had chance to post when I said I would.
But just for a bit of fun and factual learning
Post your memories of the things that have happened in the world since The Wolfs won the league in 1955
No1 - Weve put a man in space
Please feel free to add your observations/facts until 14th May 2020 when it will be 65 years since The year of the Wolf (Hayleys comet could be in there).

A GALLON of petrol cost four shillings and six pence - that's 22p in today's money.
A PACKET of cigarettes cost 18p.
A POUND of butter was 18p, a loaf was 4p, a pint of milk 3p and six eggs just 8p.
FOR £1 you could have bought 15 pints of beer, 14 fish suppers or gone to the cinema 10 times.
